Spring Vases

I feel like springtime weather in LA has been playing peek-a-boo. It has been vacillating between warm and sunny to cold and rainy every few weeks. I hope spring weather will finally be here to stay soon! One of my favorite things about spring is flowers!

I hope someday I can experience cherry blossom season in Washington DC or Japan, but locally we are lucky to be not too far from gorgeous poppy fields that burst into colorful bloom in late spring as well. But this year I have been checking the bloom status on the website for the Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve, and sadly it seems like it may be a very sparse season... so for now I will be content with having more fresh flowers in the house.

Here's a few pretty vases I've spotted. They would be lovely for bringing springs blooms into the home!

1) Pure white ceramic vase by West Elm. 2) Interlocking trio vase by Anthropologie. Such a unique design! Would make a great centerpiece.3) Flower series by Anthropologie. Love the colors and looks plenty pretty even without fresh blooms.4) Bud vase garland by Urban Outfitters. So cute! Would make a pretty backdrop for a party or shower5) Laboratory flower vases by Urban Outfitters. Because I love science. and it's rustic, but pretty.6) 4-some bud vase by CB2. Unique modern design and a great price too!

Sometimes I miss my "flower girl days" (when I worked part-time at a flower shop during college), because I just got to arrange flowers all day long. Some days just don't get much better than that!
